rights or obligations hereunder, in violation of this Article 17 shall be void. In the event of any assignment of this Agreement

from and against any and all Claims arising from or occurring as a result of the death or injury of any person caused or resulting
(or allegedly caused or resulting) from the use of any AgeX Product:


 


(a)
any default by AgeX of its obligations under this Agreement;

any negligent act or omission of AgeX in connection with the performance of its obligations under this Agreement;

18.2
Indemnity by BioTime. BioTime shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless AgeX, its subsidiaries and their respective officers,
directors, employees and agents, from and against any and all costs, claims, damages and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’
fees and other expenses of legal proceedings) (collectively, “Claims”), in connection with any and all
suits, actions, investigations, claims or demands of Third Parties arising from or occurring as a result of death or injury of
any person caused or resulting from the use of any BioTime Product. Notwithstanding the foregoing, BioTime shall not be required
to indemnify AgeX, its Affiliates, and their respective officers, directors, employees and agents for any Claims to the extent
such Claims are attributable to any of the matters as to which AgeX has an obligation to indemnify BioTime or for which AgeX’s
negligence or willful misconduct contributed to the Claim.


 


18.3
Indemnification Procedures.


 


a)
Notice of Claim. In the event of any claim, action or proceeding for which a Person is entitled to indemnity hereunder,
the Person seeking indemnity (“Claimant”) shall promptly notify the relevant Party (“Indemnitor”)
of such matter in writing, but in no event shall the Indemnitor be liable for any Claim that result from any delay in providing
such notice.


 


b)
Control of Defense. As its option, Indemnitor may then assume responsibility for and shall have full control of such matter
by giving notice to Claimant within thirty (30) days after the Indemnitor’s receipt of notice from Claimant. The assumption
of the defense of a Claim by the Indemnitor shall not be construed as an acknowledgment that Indemnitor is liable to indemnify
Claimant in respect of the Third Party claim, nor shall it constitute a waiver by Indemnitor of any defenses it may assert against
Claimant’s claim for indemnification. Upon assuming the defense of a Third Party claim, Indemnitor may appoint as lead counsel
in the defense of the Claim any legal counsel selected by Indemnitor. In the event Indemnitor assumes the defense of a Third Party
claim, Claimant shall immediately deliver to Indemnitor all original notices and documents (including court papers) received by
Claimant in connection with the Third Party claim. Should Indemnitor assume the defense of a Third Party claim, except as provided
below, Indemnitor shall not be liable to Claimant for any legal expenses subsequently incurred by such Claimant in connection
with the analysis, defense or settlement of the Third Party claim. In the event that it is ultimately determined that Indemnitor
is not obligated to indemnify, defend or hold harmless Claimant from and against the Third Party claim, Claimant shall reimburse
Indemnitor for any and all costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and costs of suit) and any Third Party claims incurred
by Indemnitor in its defense of the Third Party claim. Without limiting the foregoing, any Claimant shall be entitled to participate
in, but not control, the defense of such Claim and to employ counsel of its choice for such purpose; provided, however,
that such employment shall be at Claimant’s own expense unless (a) the employment thereof has been specifically authorized
by Indemnitor in writing, (b) Indemnitor has failed to assume the defense and employ counsel in accordance with this Section 14.4.2
(in which case Claimant shall control the defense) or (c) the interests of Claimant and Indemnitor with respect to such Claim
are sufficiently adverse to prohibit the representation by the same counsel of both Parties under applicable law, ethical rules
or equitable principles.


 




    	 



    	Execution Version



    

 


c)
Settlement. With respect to any Claim relating solely to the payment of money damages in connection with a Claim and that
shall not result in Claimant’s becoming subject to injunctive or other relief or otherwise adversely affecting the business
of Claimant in any manner, and as to which Indemnitor shall have acknowledged in writing the obligation to indemnify Claimant
hereunder, Indemnitor shall have the sole right to consent to the entry of any judgment, enter into any settlement or otherwise
dispose of such Claim, on such terms as Indemnitor, in its sole discretion, shall deem appropriate. With respect to all other
Claim, where Indemnitor has assumed the defense of the Claim in accordance with Section 9.4(b), Indemnitor shall have authority
to consent to the entry of any judgment, enter into any settlement or otherwise dispose of such Claim, provided it obtains
the prior written consent of Claimant (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). Indemnitor shall not be liable
for any settlement or other disposition of a Claim by Claimant that is reached without the written consent of Indemnitor. Regardless
of whether Indemnitor chooses to defend or prosecute any Third Party claim, no Claimant shall admit any liability with respect
to or settle, compromise or discharge, any Claim without the prior written consent of Indemnitor, such consent not to be unreasonably
withheld or delayed.


 


d)
Cooperation. Regardless of whether Indemnitor chooses to defend or prosecute any Third Party claim, Claimant shall cooperate
in the defense or prosecution thereof and shall furnish such records, information and testimony, provide such witnesses and attend
such conferences, discovery proceedings, hearings, trials and appeals as may be reasonably requested in connection therewith.
Such cooperation shall include access during normal business hours afforded to Indemnitor to, and reasonable retention by Claimant
of, records and information that are reasonably relevant to such Third Party claim, and making employees and agents available
on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder, and Indemnitor
shall reimburse Claimant for all its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses in connection therewith.


 


e)
Expenses. Except as provided above, the costs and expenses, including fees and disbursements of counsel, incurred by Claimant
in connection with any claim shall be reimbursed on a calendar quarter basis by Indemnitor, without prejudice to Indemnitor’s
right to contest Claimant’s right to indemnification and subject to refund in the event Indemnitor is ultimately held not
to be obligated to indemnify Claimant.


 


18.4
Limitation of Liability. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHALL A PARTY HERETO BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER PARTY FOR CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL,
PUNITIVE OR SPECIAL DAMAGES IN RESPECT OF PERFORMANCE OF THIS AGREEMENT; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT ALL AMOUNTS THAT AN INDEMNIFIED
PERSON IS REQUIRED TO PAY TO ANY THIRD PARTY AS THE RESULT OF A MATTER FOR WHICH SUCH INDEMNIFIED PERSON IS ENTITLED TO BE INDEMNIFIED
UNDER THIS ARTICLE SHALL BE CONSIDERED TO BE DIRECT DAMAGES WHICH ARE INDEMNIFIABLE HEREUNDER.

Arbitration. In the event that the Parties have been unable to reach accord using the procedures set forth in Section 13.1
and only if such is the case, either Party may seek final resolution of the matter through binding arbitration, and only through
binding arbitration. The failure of a Party to comply with the provisions of Section 13.2 with respect to any controversy or claim
shall constitute an absolute bar to the institution of any proceedings, by arbitration or otherwise, with respect to such controversy
or claim. Any such arbitration shall be held in San Francisco, California in the English language before a panel of three (3)
arbitrators in accordance with the then existing Rules of Arbitration of the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”)
and judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrators may be entered or enforced in any court having jurisdiction thereof. In
any arbitration proceeding hereunder, each Party shall select one arbitrator and the arbitrators selected by the Parties shall
then select a third arbitrator, who shall have at least fifteen (15) years’ experience in pharmaceutical patent licensing.
The arbitrators shall permit the Parties to have discovery to the extent permitted by the rules of the AAA. The decision of the
arbitrators shall be final and binding on the Parties and shall be accompanied by a written opinion of the arbitrators explaining
the arbitrators’ rationale for their decision. The intent of the Parties is that except for the entering of an arbitration
order in a court of competent jurisdiction, disputes shall be resolved finally in arbitration as provided above, without appeal,
and without recourse to litigation in the courts.

24.3
Exceptions. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of Sections 13.1 and 13.2, either Party may initiate an action before
any court having competent jurisdiction in order to obtain interim or conservatory relief, such as an order to preserve the status
quo and to avoid incurring irreparable harm pending the resolution of any dispute that is submitted to arbitration, to prevent
or enjoin a breach or threatened breach of confidentiality or to enforce provisions of this Agreement relating to ownership rights
in intellectual property without complying with the procedures set forth in Sections 25.1 and 25.2.
